New York Mets first baseman Pete Alonso told reporters that he’s lucky to be alive and well after being involved in a terrible car crash in Tampa.

The slugger says another driver ran a red light and T-boned his car, causing it to flip over. Alonso says he had to kick out his windshield to escape his overturned vehicle.

“I’m really thankful to be alive,” the 2019 All-Star reserve explained.

He added that the people in the other vehicle were not seriously hurt. His wife, who was trailing him in a separate vehicle, sprang into action.

“She alerted the authorities and got people to help out before the authorities showed up,” he said. “It was awesome.”

Some extended vacations last longer than Tom Brady’s retirement.

Brady announced that he is returning to quarterback the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after just 40 days in retirement. It never seemed befitting of the seven-time Super Bowl champion to go quietly into the next phase of his life after an NFC divisional-round playoff loss to the Rams in which his dramatic 24-point second-half comeback went for naught.

“These past two months I’ve realized my place is still on the field and not in the stands,” he said.

“That time will come. But it’s not now. I love my teammates, and I love my supportive family. They make it all possible. I’m coming back for my 23rd season in Tampa. Unfinished business.”

So, the Buccaneers no longer have to scour free agency for a quarterback. Brady, 44, still has one year remaining on his contract, so he couldn’t sign with his childhood-beloved 49ers or any other attractive destination like the Saints or Dolphins.

Aaron Rodgers is planning to come back to the Green Bay Packers for an 18th season, a move that keeps the reigning MVP off the trade market and answers the question that had dominated NFL offseason discussions.

“Yes, I will be playing with the Packers next year,” Rodgers said. “However, reports about me signing a contract are inaccurate, as are the supposed terms of the contract ‘I signed.’ I’m very excited to be back.”

NFL Network reported that the 38-year-old Rodgers had agreed to a four-year, $200 million contract that includes $153 million in guaranteed money. 

Rodgers’ decision comes a month after he won his second straight MVP award. The four-time MVP quarterback has spent his entire career in Green Bay.
